Re: [MBZ] More Air Conditioner Repair
On a related, but completely different, note. If you have a vehicle that was originally an R12 system, and you put R134a into the compressor. Knowing that the age of the rings is probably leaking R12 anyway, would the R134a last long enough to make it through this summer to the winter without needing to replace all the rubber in the lines this year?

Re: [MBZ] More Air Conditioner Repair
I replace all the o-rings as a matter of course, having learned that if you don't, one will leak sooner or later if the system leaked down in the first place. My old 300D required only replacement of the seal at the compressor manifold to hose set and ran great for years, but all the others ended up with new ones. I've got to round up the set for the expansion valve on the new 300D, having taken a chance last year that I didn't need them. Wrong.

That's what I was afraid of, I'm not sure how much longer I'm keeping this car and just wanted A/C for this season. Oh well, do it right and do it once, right?
